Q

Similarities and differences between osteoporosis and osteopenia

A

Similarities: increased risk of fracture from decreased bone mass

Differences: osteopenia has de-mineralized bone, while osteoporosis is normal mineralized bone p

Q

Osteoblast vs Osteoclast

A

Osteoblast- creates or builds bone

Osteoclast- destroys bone

This reformation is in response to the stresses applied on it (Wolffs Law)

Q

Treatments for VCF’s

Non-pharmaceutical

A

physical therapy, ice baths, braces, vertebroplasty, kypoplasty

19
Q

Treatment for VCF:

(pharmaceutical)

SERM

A

Mimic the effects of estrogen in some tissues while blocking its effects in other tissues
Ex: evista
Effective at preventing postmenopausal osteoporosis without causing endometrial proliferation or increasing the risk of breast cancer

Increase hot flashes and leg cramps

20
Q

Treatment for VCF:

(pharmaceutical)

Biophosphates

A

Bind permanently to mineralized bone surfaces and inhibit osteoclastic activity during bone resorption

Ex: boniva

Effective in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis

Side effects: nausea, heartburn, abdominal pain

21
Q

Treatment for VCF:

(pharmaceutical)

Calcitonin

A

Increased the levels of calcium and potassium in the bones and lowers the level of calcium in the blood

Treatment not prevention of osteoporosis

Ex: miacalcin

Increases bone density, decreases bone loss, relieves pain of VCF

Side effects: nausea, diarrhea

22
Q

Treatment for VCF:

(pharmaceutical)

Recombinant parathyroid hormone

A

Ex: forteo

Called bone formation agents; acts on osteoblasts to stimulate new bone growth and improve bone density

Decrease risk of VF

Side effects: dizziness, headache, pain

Question if it leads to bone disease

23
Q

Non-narcotic pain

A

Acetaminophen, rare side effects, increased risk of liver damage

NSAIDs, negative effects on GI tract

Cox 2 inhibitors: anti-inflammatory drugs that exhibit cox-2 enzyme

24
Q

Narcotic pain meds

A

Work directly on central nervous system

Ex: codeine and morphine

Can cause drowsiness and constipation

25
Q

Supine or dorsal

A

Lying on the back

26
Q

Patient operative placement

Prone

A

Lying on the abdomen (face down)

27
Q

Patient operative placement

Knee-chest

A

Kneeling, face down

28
Q

Patient operative placement

Lithotomy

A

Lying on back, thigh elevated, legs at 90 degrees

29
Q

Patient operative placement

Trendelenburg

A

Lying on back, head down

30
Q

Patient operative placement

Lateral decubitus

A

Lying on the side

31
Q

Morbidity

A

36
Q

Views of X-RAY

A

AP: end plates parallel, equidistant, pedicles located in upper 1/2 of vertebral body

Lateral: end plates parallel while pedicles superimposed

Oblique- direct view down canal of pedicle

37
Q

Treatment for VCF

Pharmaceutical

A 
Hormone replacement therapy
SERM
Biophosphates 
Calcitonin 
Recombinant parathyroid hormone
38
Q

Treatment for VCF:

(pharmaceutical)

Hormone replacement therapy

A

example: premarin
* can prevent bone loss but is unable to restore bone mass
* effective at relieving postmenopausal symptoms such as hot flashes and vaginal dryness
* decreases the risk of fractures
* overall negative impact on patient health
